Digg Digg has come quite a way. The plugin was created by Yong Mook Kim. The plugin is geared for allowing visitors to social bookmark or share the post on social network sites. Some of the sites include:

• BlogEngage
• Delicious
• Designbump
• Designfloat
• Digg
• Dzone
• Facebook Share / Like
• Google Buzz
• Polladium
• Post Comments
• Reddit
• Sphinn
• StumbleUpon
• TweetMeme
• The Web Blend
• Yahoo Buzz

I like the option to allow the social network icons to acts like a fixed background image, just like how Mashable’s posts are set up.

I do want to note that you should watch out in case Digg Digg’s code interferes with your site’s layout. I have had it happen quite a few times running it with the default settings. However, the great thing is that you can manually insert the individual social network buttons if you wish.

This is a plugin that does get updated quite frequently. It is understandable because API with social networks can change. However because the plugin is updated so frequently, it might be best to hold off a week before upgrading. It has been known to not be complete in past upgrades, so be cautious (you should be cautious in upgrading any plugins.)

Personally I use Digg Digg at the top of my posts and then a separate social bookmarking toward the end of my post. I am not quite sold on the Mashable sliding social bookmark feature. Applying this feature without a plugin is actually quite easy.

Do you use Digg Digg?
